Thanks fer lookin!
 
I havent really done much to it lately besides tear it up, but i did start making a roof for it, and i made a muffler to quiet the damn thing down a little bit! Btw the little buggy may have made it in crawl for the next issue...

Custom stainless muffler

The muffler just has two angled baffles in it but it made it a LOT better to trail ride in. Still noisy, but way better then before.

new direction for Crawl - skip the new/awesome/expensive stuff and go for the mini/cheap ones.
Once you see one RuffStuff/Torq/EOR/Ouverson/RCV/Yukon/Wilwood/Raceline built axle, you've seen em all. Sami stuff - that's different
